Okay, I hadn't planned on this blog being entirely one big rant, but I have to rant about this.
Pinterest.
This site is the devil, for two reasons. The first big one is that I have become one of the many who have become addicted to this site. I swear, if I make every recipe I've copied from there I'm going to weigh about 500 pounds. And that will not be pretty. But the stuff I've found on there just looks sooo irresistible that I'm going to have to try most of it.
Which brings me to my next point about this unbelievably addictive site. You caught the part about me copying the recipes, right? Well, that's because you have to be invited to the website to be able to pin anything. Seriously? I mean, it's a brilliant marketing plan, but tends to piss people like me off. Instead of just pinning things to my boards I am left clicking, then clicking again, then copying, then pasting to a word doc, then saving. It's a big pain in my ass. And, it's filling up my second rate lap top with a lot of crap. Not to mention, that while I was at work today, I found an amazing looking recipe for chocolate chip cookies. Now, I can't find the damn thing.
So, to the invite Gods at Pinterest, I beg. I beg of you to please accept my invitation and save my sanity (and the memory on my hard drive). Because, really, my friends are of the non-cyber variety, so getting an invitation that way just isn't going to work.
I know, I know. Put the recipes on your thumb drive! To be honest with you, I just thought of that. I'll have to try that tomorrow. For now, I've got to go cook something. The kids need to eat after all.
